TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 1 hour ago, le boss said: The sooner that those involved in Truro football club realise that very few, if any, people living outside of Truro are remotely interested in watching them the better. Cornwall is a parochial county and people only support their own town or village. Lovely idea that we shall feel compelled to watch them but should we all go and watch Truro cricket as well just because they are the biggest team in Cornwall? Not interested watching Ebbsfleet or any other non league team let alone pay more than a tenner for the privilege Unusually sensible and on the money there le boss. I have watched TCFC play ....when there is absolutely no local football on anywhere ...and that includes Helston (!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIG AL Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 20 hours ago, TheolderIgetthebetterIwas said: Falmouth will always be the yardstick to my generation .....and they've had to sell their ground as well when trying to stay at the top level. Is that the old Asfield ground or the present Bickland ? No information released from the club to the Press, as far as I am aware? Is a new ground actually started being constructed ?

Bickland for me ...and yes the new ground is presently under the early stages of construction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B_D's postings only act to fan the flames, perhaps he should award himself a red card, Offside Ref. Hi B_D, I appreciate your "Like" endorsement for the above posting accepting the latter part of it in the humorous manner it was intended, despite our opposite opinion on some of the matters raised, varying opinions keep these forums to the fore, It may be better at times if when there is a different viewpoint those on the fringe of what is being mentioned ask any questions about matters they are uncertain about - perhaps these forums need more discussion rather than occasional conflict. I notice you are a referee, I imagine you do that with humour, those types of referee are rare these days but are after all amongst the better ones. I was at a game this season and the referee made a mistake and I voiced my opinion but before restarting play he ran to near where I stood and said "if I was where you are I would say the same" and winked, it was a lesser error (he realised he made) but it may have created an atmosphere within the game if he had changed his mind so allowed the game to flow. - The better side of football.

Everyone's entitled to an opinion, how you voice that opinion is the important thing. I respect yours, as I do everyone else's. This forum is a fantastic platform for social interaction from all walks of football - Referees, players, spectators etc alike. But sometimes it can also be quite a nasty place. That's the bit I don't like. I saw the humour to your post. I try to see the funny side in everything (where it can be found) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikeyburnsey Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 If you do speak out, you get banned from the website , I have sent an email to PM about 10 days ago and tried to build bridges but as of yet no reply. I then tried FB sent a message to Mr N who read it but also failed to respond. So just now I tweeted the club and asked if i am banned? GREAT PR i must say.

You get treated like s££t,but you still want to crawl back. Think the Club have made thinks very clear,as far as you are concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somersetspur Posted July 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 After weeks of no real news on the sale of season tickets,it appears it has been a pretty ordinary response. To try and encourage more interest,the Club are now offering a 7 match ticket for £70,concessions are £50. All this is really doing is now offering everyone the Supporters Club discount. Looks like the Club would like to invest more into the average squad,and are trying to raise more funds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
